A worm with a nervous system of only 302 neurons satisfies the necessary and sufficient conditions for value-based decision making.

Combining 7 Tesla fMRI and MEG data collected during a challenging visual recognition task revealed distinct neural representational formats in ventral visual and frontoparietal regions, and the emergence of recognition-related signals prior to category-related information.

Postmated increases in sucrose consumption in Drosophila melanogaster females is executed by a female specific circuit that alters neuroendocrine centers to promote hunger.

Applied and computational results show how dimensionality reduction approaches can help in grouping correlated genetic variant-exposure associations and improve causal inference in the Mendelian randomisation framework.

A normalization model is shown to predict responses to multiple objects across changes in the attentional state in the visual cortex, providing evidence for the role of normalization as a fundamental operation in the human brain.

In the human brain, default mode network BOLD deactivations can be accompanied by both increases and decreases in glucose metabolism, depending on the respective metabolic demands of task-positive cognitive control and attention networks.

Novel and common angiogenic mechanisms crucial for fenestrated brain capillary formation have been identified.

An epigenomic analysis in mouse macrophages reveals that a highly abundant transposable element exhibits activity as an immune inducible regulatory element.

Chronic stimulation with odors at naturally occurring concentrations only mildly impacts early stages of olfactory processing, suggesting a need to re-interpret prevailing models of how chronic odor exposure affects olfactory function.

A randomized placebo-controlled trial with behavioral, neuroimaging, and physiological measures reveals that oxytocin treatment facilitates pleasure and brain reward responses only to gentle stroking social touch by increasing peripheral blood concentrations.
